Anyone know if Tamiya is retooling the cockpit in this to match the new standards of thier recent aircraft kits?

Hi Winston

To be honest, I very much doubt it. I may be wrong, but I can't remember Tamiya ever retooling the cockpit of one of their older to kits to bring it up to date.

But, maybe, with the new Hasegawa and DML kits on the horizon, Tamiya will take a fresh look at the '190...

All the best

I can only hope since the FW190 is such a good subject. Having an updated cockpit will make it easier to build out of box. I'll see them as soon as I get my shipment in probably close to the end of Oct unless it is delayed.
